Deuteronomy 22:19

Study

       

19 Condemning him besides in a hundred sides of silver, which he shall give to the damsel's father, because he hath defamed by a very ill name a virgin of Israel: and he shall have her to wife, and may not put her away all the days of his life.

Commentary

 

Garment

  

A garment of the entwinings of gold and of needlework, as in Psalm 45:13, signifies the Lord's divine truth.

A garment down to the foot, as in Revelation 1:13, signifies the leading divine which is divine truth.

It is said, in Deuteronomy 22:11, "Thou shalt not wear a garment of diverse sorts; as of woolen and linen together…”. This means that the states of good and truth should not be mixed up: people in the spiritual kingdom of the Lord cannot be also in His celestial kingdom at the same time, and vice versa.
